I was mostly a lurker here during R2. I posted during a few episode's threads and then on and off in the months that followed. But, I think I am going to try and be a more active member in these forums this time around.

I'm pretty excited to see Code Geass sticking around. As long as it doesn't suck (and I even loved R2), I don't see the problem with them milking a popular series.

Well...some anime movies have been good in the past (Char's Counterattack comes to mind as does Bleach: Memories of Nobody).

But Macross the Movie was horrible IMHO.
It had beautiful artwork (for the 80s) and a nice soundtrack but the rehash of the story was terrible.

Actually, Macross the Movie created was an alternate universe version of the TV show. From there, it created the current foundation of the Macross Universe. Although, I wished that the movie would have picked up where the 1982-1983 TV Show had let off, with the Megaroad going into space.

There isn't a lack of ideas that they could use for Macross. However, the creator doesn't like sequels.

Thus, most of his Macross shows ends where they stand.

With Code Geass, however, I hope that the staff use the option that Sunrise has given them to bring forth the original version of Code Geass R2, which was to have been geared at the latenight audience of Season One.

The way I see it, this could either be a remake with a new character as Zero to replace Lelouch with the same other characters, so they can make what they intended to make, or a remake of the entire series.

I'm not liking a spin-off of this. I like the series "untouched."

I don't hate it, it's just how can they increase bigger hype than Lelouch?

I didn't see much besides them saying basically what google said. I still am holding out for a proper word for word translation.

"Video works" is most likely a bad translation, as it is what google gave me. I want to say it means "anime", but even google would have most likely translated that as "animation". This is why we need someone who knows the Japanese language.

From the looks of it, just another alternate universe retelling or adaptation?

... I get the feeling we are all about to be very disappointed.... but... but what about the video works?

They did say multiple projects, so I imagine this would just be one of them. Calm down and be patient while we wait for my info before jumping the gun. In any event, I like the long hair for Lelouch, gives off a Kaiser Reinhard von Lohengram vibe

I can't wait for the translation then. From the looks of it, it looks to be in the past (which I doubt) because of the cybernetic arm. Most likely an AU.

They already did one before... speaking of which, the artwork looks familiar, does it say whether or not it was done by the same author/artist for Knightmare of Nunnally? Maybe they'll bring back Rolo vi Britannia.... maybe that IS Rolo Vi Britannia. Sieg Kaiser Rolo!

Suzaku is Zero. All Suzaku has to do is, watch out for any injustice, and stop it. Unlike Lelouch, Suzaku does not have to manipulate anyone, or geass anyone. Someone else is ruling Britannia, and Suzaku is not alone, so if he screwed up, there would be other's to help him, including Schneizel who is the closest thing to a living Lelouch.
